When Mom sends D.W. to her room, ten minutes seem like forever. At first D.W. sulks, but as the time crawls by, she starts to worry. What if she starves? What if her family doesn't love her anymore? What if she's stuck in her room for the rest of her life? Every minute, D.W. imagines a wild new scenario as she waits out her punishment. Then an unexpected visitor comes to her rescue. . . .
In this seventh D.W book, Marc Brown turns a universal childhood experience into a hilarious adventure with his unique blend of humor, warmth, and insight.
